So, you’ve qualified as a yoga teacher, NOW WHAT?

I know how passionate you feel about Yoga, it changed your life and you really want to share it with others.

You took your TT as you want to make a difference, to help others
and do something with your life that lights you up, but you also need to
make money and have financial freedom.

You’ve got the certificate!!! But now what?!

Perhaps you’re feeling a bit lost? You haven’t got a clue where to
begin? How to build a successful Yoga Business? I’m sure you’ve
got a lot of questions:

  •  Can I make enough money as a yoga teacher?
  •  Am I going to be stuck in my corporate career forever?
  • Is it even possible to make money as a yoga teacher?

During your teacher training, you felt part of a community and loved
the collective energy and inspiration, but now you feel alone and
not sure where to turn to, or who to ask ALL of the questions!

  • How can I stand out from the crowd?
  • How can I find my own unique style and authentic voice and
    avoid mimicking my teachers or sticking to a script?
  • How can I work through this crippling lack of confidence?

Maybe your suddenly realising just how much wasn’t covered in
your 200hr and need a safe space to ask questions?

Perhaps you feel unsure about how to modify practices for mixed
groups? Or for those with injuries? Or you feel nervous about
applying your new skills? Do you even know where to begin with
adjustments and when they’re appropriate??!

Perhaps you’re feeling a bit disillusioned with your own practice
and your yoga time has now become teaching prep?!

Maybe you’re feeling like giving up the whole ‘dream’ of being a
yoga teacher?

Your biggest fear – What if I try to make a go of it, and fail? What if nobody comes to my classes? What if they do??! Who am I to teach yoga?

All of the hard work you put in to qualify and you might be feeling like it wasn’t meant to be…

But there’s still that voice inside, telling you not to give up on your dreams….

Maybe you’re worried that due to the pandemic and the coming recession that it’s just not the right time to begin a new career, that there are already too many yoga teachers out there?

The Time is NOW

What if I were to tell you that there has never been a better time?! That NOW is the time to begin! That there has never been more need for yoga in the world, nor has it ever been more possible for yoga teachers to turn their teaching into successful and lucrative careers!

With the pivot to online teaching, teachers are now location interdependent, you can start teaching with very little overheads and with access to people from all over the world! Also, people need to hear from YOU.  They need your experience of yoga, your unique experience of how yoga has changed your life because your unique experiences will resonate with the right people and help them.

Believe me I have been in your position,

I remember all too clearly feeling so overwhelmed after finishing my 200 hr, I had NO CLUE where to begin!!!

I had no one to talk to, or to support me, and often I was too embarrassed to reach out to my teachers.

I would turn up to teach classes sometimes with only a couple of people in and take it sooo personally! I would feel sick! I remember being fearful that people would turn up, and equally fearful they wouldn’t! I also became so disillusioned with my own practice; it became a time to work out what I could teach and how I’d teach it. I lost the joy, spark and peace that Yoga gives us!

Well fast forward thirteen years (many mistakes and a lot of time learning lessons and working with some great mentors) and my yoga teaching feels so grounded and I can honestly say I feel more inspired, and in love with yoga than ever!

I have taught and established a successful yoga business. With classes both online and when possible in person!

 I teach fulfilling workshops across the UK. I regularly run powerful International and UK retreats, I’ve taught at festivals and I teach and mentor on the London ISHTA Yoga 200, and 300 hr Teacher Trainings.

I’ve been running my own mentoring programme for teachers for the last few years and have helped many teachers establish thriving, and successful yoga businesses. I find it so fulfilling and I learn from everyone I meet and work with too! I love building community amongst yoga teachers.

Hear from Dawn, an Ignite Mentee from 2023!

“Having Jess as a mentor has been a godsend, it was just what I needed!

When I signed up for Jess’ mentoring I had just returned from my second teacher training course and was feeling a bit overwhelmed at the thought of getting back into teaching.

Through Jess’ guidance, I found my focus, started teaching again and am finding that I have more clarity around why I’m teaching and how I want to teach. Jess also shares lots of practical information such as breaking down asanas, sequencing, adjustments, social media, how to navigate the ‘interview process’ at a new studio etc. A lot of this information wasn’t covered in my teacher training so Jess is in a sense filling the gaps of knowledge that I really needed. I highly recommend this course!”

I truly believe that the more yoga in the world the better we’ll all be, and want to help others get out there and share their yoga, and get paid well for it!

Meet The Team

“I’d really recommend the mentor programme with Jess Horn. It’s been extremely helpful in so many aspects of the whole spectrum of what is involved in teaching yoga! Jess was a very supportive mentor, and the monthly sessions were great because I got to hear others’ experiences as a new yoga teacher, and to share mine.  Jess’ input has been so valuable, especially in helping me to build my confidence around the business side of yoga”

“Jess is an incredible yoga teacher and it’s been an absolute privilege learning from her on the mentoring programme.  
As a newly qualified yoga teacher, it’s been invaluable having someone to guide me through setting up my own classes and continuing to develop my teaching skills and knowledge.  She’s been able to share her wisdom and offer guidance on so many questions and issues that only come up when you actually start teaching in real life!  Most importantly, Jess has helped guide me on my spiritual journey, built my confidence and introduced me to tools that I’ll continue to use long into the future! 
I’ve also loved being part of a community of yoga teachers, supporting each other and having fun along the way!  Thanks so much, Jess – it’s been awesome!”

Why Study With Me?

I have been teaching for over 13 years, and practicing yoga for over 20.

Yoga is my passion and my Dharma.

My aim is to bring yoga to as many people as possible. I love teaching yoga teachers to spread the word of yoga as widely as possible!

Over the last 20 years I’ve studied, Sivananda, Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Vinyasa Yoga.

I have trained with some of the most respected yoga teachers in the world: Tias Little, Sally Kempton, Clare Missingham, Jason Crandell, Richard Freeman and Shiva Rea to name a few.

I have since found my spiritual home in ISHTA Yoga and in 2015 I took my 300hr training with my teacher Yogi Raj Katrina Repka. I’m now 500 hr trained. ISHTA means individual and is also an acronym for the Integrated, Science of Hatha, Tantra and Ayurveda.

I teach an alignment based, breath led, Vinyasa Flow.

I also teach Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Meditation and Pre-natal Yoga.

I teach and mentor on the UK ISHTA teacher trainings, which happen in London. I run UK and Worldwide Retreats, run sold out workshops and classes both in St Albans where I live and in London.

It doesn’t matter what school of yoga you’re from, this course will help you refine your teaching skills and give you a sense of community and support.

“Jess’s mentorship programme has been so helpful to my journey as a new teacher. Jess is approachable, extremely knowledgeable and always has a helpful answer to any question! It has also been great to meet some other new teachers and share our experiences and learnings with each other. Would highly recommend to anyone that feels like there is something missing with their teaching!”

Chloe Chivers

Yoga Teacher and Freelance Marketing Expert

“I have just finished the Ignite Mentoring Program with Jess and it was exactly what I needed … As a relatively new Yoga teacher, I have been able to gain more self confidence, do some practice teaching with other like minded yoga teachers, find a community of soul mates and learn from Jess vast experience in teaching. She organised this 6 months mentoring program with online monthly sessions and weekly calls, homework, tips, advice and support to help us grow our new business. Jess gave us access to a mentor and various other specialists (social media, physio etc…) and it was very complete training which I can only recommend to any yoga teacher”

“I am thoroughly enjoying the mentoring course so far. Jess is so knowledgeable on all things yoga and the monthly modules are packed with information that builds on our 200hr teacher training. 

The group is very supportive and at each meeting we each talk about how we are doing and what challenges are coming up for us. Jess and the other mentees have helped me deal with issues with my confidence as a teacher and questions on marketing, sequencing, adjustments and much more. 

Jess has encouraged us to ask as many questions as we can and to open up discussions. She has also been very open to suggestions and changes to the course and really wants us to get the most out of it. She is available for questions on Facebook each day and for calls each month and has so much experience its an invaluable resource for a new teacher. 

I would thoroughly recommend this course to any new yoga teachers

I have absolutely loved working with this amazing and powerful group of women and can’t believe the 6 months is almost up!”

Rachel Lyon Yoga

“I had been teaching for nearly two years when I started the mentoring programme with Jess. I had got into a habit of saying yes to anything and everything that came my way and was teaching all over the place to a variety of different people. This was great but I was exhausted and felt a little lost. Jess immediately helped me to remember why I chose to teach in the first place and helped me to prioritise my own practice (something that had been put to the bottom of the list when busy). She helped me to develop boundaries, value myself and my business and I learned so much about the ins and outs of running a yoga business such as setting up online payments,  developing a mailing list and what needs to be included on a website (to name a few). She has been an amazing inspiration and I really feel she went above and beyond my expectations of the course, it really was a good investment! I feel confident in who I am as a teacher, a business owner and a practitioner. Thanks so much Jess!”

“I first met Jess a couple of years ago on one of her day retreats she held in St Albans. Straight away, I was inspired by her teaching- her style, nature and knowledge and I remember thinking how much I aspired to be a teacher like Jess. I signed up to her mentor programme in January 2020 and have developed so much as a teacher since then. Jess really helps to form a warm and inviting Kula (community) of yoga teachers and I have definitely made some friends for life from this mentor programme too. It is such a well-rounded mentor programme and Jess’ knowledge is so vast! I have developed in all areas of my teaching- my confidence, class planning and sequencing, chanting, philosophy and the business side of it. I really don’t want it to end! I wish we could just carry on with meet ups and group discussions which I am sure we will from the little community of teachers we have made! Thank you so much Jess, you special lady. x”
